History
Official heritage record, in French:
En 1843, Ogée mentionne quatre établissements de pêche à sardines à Clohars-Carnoët dont fait partie la "presse" de Porsac'h qui figure sur le cadastre de 1823. Agrandissement au milieu du 19e siècle, mais échec d'établir durablement une conserverie à cause d'accès terrestres et maritimes difficiles.Transformation en demeure depuis la fin du 19e siècle.

Architecture
Architectural description from the regional heritage survey, in French:
La partie est, de plan massé, avec un étage de soubassement donnant accès à la grève et deux étages carrés, était sans doute destinée à un usage à la fois industriel et résidentiel. L'aile ouest semble avoir abrité des ateliers, avec une cheminée d'angle pour la friture du poisson. Intérieur non vu.
